2020 Saxum Rocket Block James Berry Vineyard | Willow Creek District, Paso Robles California 1.5L MAGNUM

Wow, another awesome Rocket Grenache! This wine is really bringing it. Red red fruits, think crushed raspberry and strawberries, with a kiss of black pepper and rosemary. (Is this a weird combo?) Whatever it is, it's so pretty, yet so powerful at the same time. I'm stoked on this wine, it might be my favorite of this vintage. 501 cases produced. | Justin Smith for Saxum

...It shows the more challenging style of the 2020 vintage but is unquestionably a beautiful wine, offering smoky dark fruits, roasted herbs, cured meats and pepper. Full-bodied, straight, and focused, it has fine-grained tannins and outstanding length... | 93 points, Jeb Dunnuck for jebdunnuck.com
